With 1876 meters the second highest peak on the degree of the northern Rauhhornzuges.
The view of the surrounding mountain landscape is huge. The path to the Iseler summit requires not only certain surefootedness.

Kühgundkopf

Highlight • Summit

A summit that you (unfortunately) hardly perceive as such - more of an elevation on the very beautiful ridge path. The Salewa via ferrata also begins / ends here.

June 4, 2026,Anspruchsvolle Rundwanderung vom Sessellift Schattwald/Wannenjoch Bergstation über Wiedhagalm/Iselergipfel/Kühgundkopf/Kühgundspitz Zurück zum Sessellift

Inexperienced hikers should first look at the photos of the hike here and then decide if they can manage it. You should be sure-footed and be able to walk on paths where there is a steep drop to the side. It's a fantastic tour with amazing views all around!

September 12, 2023,⛰ Grenzgänger-Runde 🇩🇪🇦🇹 Kühgundkopf und Iseler

Take the Iselerbahn to the top, then clockwise on the Schmugglersteig to Austria. After stopping at the Wannenjochbahn mountain station, the actual climb begins: up to the Kühgundkopf and over the ridge to the Iseler and from there quite steeply down to the starting point. The last part is very scree in places, with rocks and roots and on the …

June 14, 2026,Wannenjoch - Kühgundkopf zum Iseler, retour über den Schmugglerweg

From the mountain station of the Wannenjochbahn at 1,565 meters, there are plenty of tours to choose from.
We start our planned tour and then decide...
We head up to the summit of the Wannenjoch (Kühgundkopf, 1,907 m). From there, the route continues with great views over the border ridge to the Iseler.
The path is a ridge hike, so …

June 24, 2023,Über die Kühgundspitze zum Iseler - tolle Runde ⛰️🚶🏼‍♀️🚶☀️

What a super nice, exciting round. From the mountain station of the Wiedhagbahn in an easterly direction slowly up towards the Wannenkopfbahn and then a little steeper with a great view of the Tannheimer Tal to the Kühgundspitze (Wannenkopf) and over the moderately exposed ridge over to the Iseler. Fantastic views of the valley and the Allgäu High Alps. And …

October 27, 2021,Gratwanderung über Kühgundkopf und Iseler

Interesting climb over two peaks with tons of views - mostly on both sides. The path is very well secured, but you should at least have a head for heights, especially on the first part of the ridge to Kühgundkopf. 🏔️🥾☀️

Is it an insider tip? No definitely not. Since I was traveling during the week, the crowds were somewhat bearable. The ridge path is really interesting, varied and there are lots of views on both sides.

October 3, 2025,Runde über den Iselergrat von Oberjoch (Wiedhagbahm)

A magnificently scenic tour with some exposed sections, where you'll sometimes need your hands – not an entry-level tour for beginners, but manageable with some experience. The Wiedhagallpe is a perfect finale.

Thanks to the guest card, we were able to easily drive up from Oberjoch to Wiedhagalp free of charge and thus save ourselves the lower, somewhat lame part of the hike.
On the way to the Iseler, we almost stumbled over a black snake that was just lazily lying around across the path... I can't say at all whether it …
